Re: Audio Rush - An Accessible Arcade Game for iOS
@smit.al, I'm afraid I don't agree that keeping the game's audio simplistic or missing audio information is a good thing. Anyone with ears can play an audiogame, irrespective of whether they have working vision or not, after all audio dramas are sold to sighted people, indeed there's nothing that would be better for the community than getting more interested sighted players trying out audiogames and thus getting more exposure generally, rather than just reinforcing the sterreotype that something is "for the blind" and hence not for anyone else, especially in an era of greater audiobook availability when audiogames are being produced for platforms like Alexa, indeed the more people playing audiogames, the better for everyone.
so, I'd personally say, the more sounds in the game the better, and just as with the graphics, so long as there are ways to control the sound effects in the game, so someone feeling overwhelmed could scale things back, just as there are ways to turn off graphical displaying of obstacles, I don't really see the issue myself.
